That’s a lot of money for a couple who just spent $20,000-$40,000 for their big day.

Thankfully, there are some easy ways you can resell your dress and apply the cash towards your new life.

Although you can sell your gown locally (through Craigslist, eBay, consignment shops, and/or word of mouth), today we’re going to show you a few sites (online consignment shops, if you will) you can use to sell your dress for the most money online.

There are tons of websites that will pay you for your old dress – as long as it’s in decent condition, which as they only tend to be worn once, most wedding dresses are.

Wedding Bee is a website that brings together brides from around the world to share their wedding planning experiences.

It’s a social community, which discusses everything from centerpieces to DIY wedding projects.

On the message boards, brides can also share opinions and get advice on anything wedding related. But, most importantly, there’s a classified section on the site, where you can sell your old wedding dress.

You can also sell a plethora of other wedding-related items in this section, like decorative pieces from your big day, wedding ring, bridesmaid dress, etc.

It’s a great place for brides on a budget to find some great pieces.

Best of all, it’s free to list your wedding dress on Wedding Bee and you don’t have to pay to join the site either.

You set your own price on the site. If you need help setting a price, then check out the site’s Wedding Dress Value Calculator to get an estimate.

Nearly Newlywed is another website that’s a great platform for selling your wedding dress. On the site, you can list new, pre owned and used dresses.

Listing a dress on the site is incredibly easy. All you need to do is fill out the listing form on the site. You’ll need to add details about the dress, as well as photos and measurements. At this stage, you’ll also need to set your dress selling price, and pay the $25 listing fee.

You can login to your seller dashboard at any point if you want to make any changes to your listing price or update your description and photos.

When your dress sells, the site will send you a prepaid shipping label. Then, you’ll need to ship the gown to Nearly Newlywed – who will inspect it and verify its condition.

Then, the site will take care of the rest. Nearly Newlywed will handle the details of the sale, including payment, insurance, shipping, and returns.

It takes about 3 weeks from the day you ship your dress to finalize the sale.

Once the sale is finalized, you’ll receive payment via PayPal.

It’s important to note that Nearly Newlywed does take a 35% commission. So, keep that in mind when setting your price.

Still White is a site that specializes in selling second hand and pre-owned wedding dresses.

There are two packages that you can choose from to sell your dress on the site:

Standard

Premium

Standard: With the Standard package, you pay a one-time fee of $20, and you can list your dress until it’s sold. You can add up to four photos, and you get unlimited free edits on your listing. You also get live viewer statistics.

Premium: With the Premium package, you pay a one-time fee of $30, and you get all of the features of the Standard package – as well as plenty more. You also get your listing featured on the home page, a 50% larger listing, and the ability to upload 8 photos.

The buyers pay for shipping, and once you’ve sent your dress to Still White, they will handle the rest.

This is a wedding blog that covers anything related to wedding. And, of course, it lets you buy and sell wedding dresses as well.

All you need to do is take a picture of your gown and post it along with your listing. Once you submit your listing, it goes through the approval process and if it is approved, you’ll see it live within 2 days.

The best part about using this site is that there is no fee whatsoever. You get to sell your wedding dress on their platform for free. But that also means you are on our own when it comes to dealing with the buyer and making sure you receive the payment.

How Much is My Used Wedding Dress Worth?

So, how do you price your dress?

How do you know how much to sell it for?

Well, of course, it depends on the dress and its condition. So, it’s hard to give an exact number that fits every dress.

The good thing, however, is that there are sites out there (including some mentioned on this post) that have calculators that can give you an estimated number. You simply enter a few details about your dress (brand, condition, size, etc) and the calculator will tell you how much you can expect to get for your dress.
